Privacy Policy — defluffer

Last updated: 2026-06-25

defluffer is a Chrome extension that summarizes long LinkedIn posts into a single line. This policy explains exactly what data it handles.

What the extension does

When you browse linkedin.com, the extension reads the visible text of feed posts and the post author's name, and sends them to our summarization service so it can return a one-line summary that replaces the post text in your browser. Promoted / sponsored posts are labeled "AD" locally and are not sent.

Data we process

Data	Why	Where it goes
Post text + author name	To generate the one-line summary	Our Cloudflare Worker → Google Gemini API
A random install ID	Anti-abuse rate limiting only — not tied to your identity	Our Cloudflare Worker
On/off toggle + install ID	Remember your preference	Stored locally in your browser (`chrome.storage`)

We do not collect or transmit your name, email, LinkedIn profile, contacts, browsing history, passwords, or any account credentials.

Storage and retention

The summarization service processes post text in transit only to produce a summary. We do not operate a database and do not retain post content.
Post text is sent to Google's Gemini API, which processes it under Google's API terms. Do not use the extension on confidential information you would not paste into a third-party AI service.
The install ID and toggle live in your browser's local extension storage and are removed when you uninstall.

What we never do

No selling or sharing of data with third parties for advertising.
No analytics, tracking pixels, or fingerprinting.
No accounts, logins, or collection of personal information.

Your choices

Toggle the extension off anytime from its popup.
Uninstalling removes all locally stored data.
